When the final whistle sounded, Coach Johansen rushed into the pitch, yelling at the top of his voice to celebrate Rosenborg's victory. Closely following behind him were the rest of the substitutes and the members of the technical team. They were, at that moment, hopping up and down excitedly like a bunch of kids that'd just chanced upon an ice cream truck. Not even the loud booing by the Fiorentina fans still in the stadium could dampen their jubilant mood.
"Nice game," Coach Johansen said while giving Zachary a bear hug. "That run in the 70th minute was incredible. And great thinking when you passed the ball to Takumi instead of Nicki. None of the defenders expected you to make such a choice. Even I, your coach, was quite surprised by your choice."
